What is a .JSON5 file?
JSON5 extends JSON with comments and trailing commas for human-edited config.
- Did you know
- JSON5 makes JSON friendlier to write by hand.
- JSON5 was created by Aseem Kishore and is nicknamed “JSON for Humans”, aimed squarely at hand-edited configuration files.
- JSON5 allows comments, single-quoted strings, hexadecimal numbers and trailing commas, none of which strict JSON permits.
- What Analyser shows you
- Open and read structured developer data files: Jupyter notebooks (IPYNB) rendered cell by cell with their markdown, code and captured outputs (text and images); HAR network captures shown as a request table with status, type, size and timing; and the JSON supersets JSON5, JSONC and Hjson shown as selectable source with an expandable value tree.
- Open a .JSON5 file
- Drag a .JSON5 file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It opens entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
